Hosted by local owner operator Dynamic Journey Tours. This is one of the most surreal views you will ever see. During this tour, we will discuss the many interesting theories of how the wood came to be petrified, as well as the amazing exposed strata of the painted desert known as the Chinle Formation. We will also go over the rich native history in the area, as we walk amongst the ancient lands. There are a couple options for hiking the Badlands in the park. Before we visit the park, we take lunch in town and drive old Route 66 via Holbrook. We then take 4 hrs to explore the PFNP and travel North hitting most of the sites. We see 2000 year old Petroglyphs, 216 million year old Crystal trees, and the painted desert/rainbow hills.

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids on this tour?

A: There's no strict age limit, but younger kids might find the hiking sections a bit tough. The tour can be ideal for kids ages 8 and up who can handle some walking. If you're bringing little ones, just check with the tour operator in advance to see if they have any recommendations!

Q: What should we wear for the hike in the Painted Desert?

A: Wear comfortable hiking shoes with good grip, and don't forget a hat and sunscreen since it can get pretty hot out there. Layering is also a good idea because the temps can change quickly. Definitely consider a light jacket for the evening if you're going later in the day!

Q: How does rescheduling work if the weather is bad?

A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, you can usually reschedule without a problem, but it's best to contact Dynamic Journey Tours directly to confirm. They’re pretty flexible, especially since safety is a priority. Just make sure to reach out as soon as you know there's a weather issue!

Thinking of gifting the Sedona to Petrified Forest tour!

I found this tour, and it looks amazing! I’m planning to get it as a gift for my parents who love hiking and nature. The idea of exploring the Painted Desert and seeing 2000-year-old petroglyphs is just unreal. Plus, I love that lunch is included in town. Has anyone tried this tour? Any must-know tips?

Just did the Sedona to Petrified Forest tour and wow!

I recently went on this tour with Dynamic Journey Tours, and it was incredible! The views of the Painted Desert were stunning, and our guide was super knowledgeable about the history and geology of the area. I loved learning about the petrified wood! If you're considering it, definitely go for it. Bring a camera!
